Postage stamps with Sun Yat-sen's face in the Republic of China

The Republic of China once issued hundreds of Sun Yat-sen portrait stamps. Their prices varied greatly. The expensive ones could reach hundreds of thousands of yuan a piece, while the cheap ones might only cost a few cents per yuan. The situation was quite different. It’s complicated, and the actual value of these stamps cannot be judged based on the simple description of the original poster.

To add to the original poster’s question,

The first one: the 3 ""China Post (Central Edition) 'Restricted to Northeastern Postage' Stamps" issued by the China People's Post with added words. One of the "Value", issued in June 1950, a complete set of 14 pieces, with a price tag of 1,600 yuan.

The second and third stamps obviously belong to the liberated areas and have revalued stamps, and their true identities have yet to be found.

The fourth one: One of the "CITIC Edition of Sun Yat-sen Image Stamps" dated 26 of the Republic of China. This set of stamps was issued in 1942. There are 14 stamps in the set and the price is about 110-130 yuan.
